“I’m not shying away from him. Give me the biggest, baddest guys you got. He’s going to see what it’s like to be in the ring with me, and I’m sure he’s fantasized about it for 20 years or whatever, as I have about being in the ring with him. But be careful what you wish for, big boy. That’s all I’ve got to say.”

“As a person, I’m extremely proud of [Lashley. As an opponent, let’s just say I’m going to be karma because the way he’s gone about his business—his character—I’m not a big fan of. As a human being, I am a great Bobby Lashley fan. There’s no doubt about it. I always have been. Big monster, athletic guy that poses a huge threat to anybody and everybody that gets in the ring with him? Hey, I want to get in the ring with that guy.”

SummerSlam 2021 will take place on August 21, 2021, at Allegiant Stadium in the Las Vegas suburb of Paradise, Nevada. It will be the 34th event under the SummerSlam chronology.

Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after. Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
